You taught me in 20 minutes what my chemistry teacher couldn't teach in 3 years. You hero.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Wow, thank you! Happy to help
Dear Leah At a rather old age, close to retirement from 45 years as a physics teacher at the faculty of Agriculture in Israel, I decided it's about time to try yet again to learn organic chemistry, especially the nomenclature. I found your videos very helpful. Cheers. German
Brother what an inspiration
How's it going man
Always happy to meet a life-long learner!
THANK YOU!! My professor said "yeah you should memorize those for the test" you actually taught it! On my way to your website to practice :)
Awesome! and You're very welcome!
@@Leah4scithank you
You explained well in 21 minutes for what was taught in class for 50 minutes... one word, AMAZING!
Leah Fisch where did you get this? this was my final project in college!! where did you get it?
Leah Fisch I remember making the index cards!! we're u one of my lab partners??
Leah Fisch because that is my handwriting!
You made a video where you drew/explained each of these functional groups? Sounds like a really basic final project for college. More like high school.
Bless up'
You are awesome. I've been struggling with ochem and you seem to just... make it click in my head by explaining everything so clearly and in a way that people will remember and understand. Thank you very very much, Leah!
You're so very welcome, happy to clear things up for you!
this is pure genius.. i have to memorize most of the functional groups and this has definitely helped!
so glad to help!
You may not fully understand how much of help you have been to a lot of us. From the bottom of my heart i say thank you. (:
You're very welcome! I'm very glad my videos have helped! :)
Thank so much for what you do Leah, I'm in my first year of a chemistry major and although I'm not very good yet, I'm really passionate and eager about the subject. You've made things a lot clearer and easier to understand for me. Again thank you!
You're so very welcome, happy to help!
I've been struggling to learn these for 4 months and you just helped me memorize every single one in less than half an hour. You're incredible thank you so much
Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling for so long, glad you were able to find this video in time to hopefully ace your exam
Thank God my teacher told us about you. You have made my life much more simple. I hope to watch all of your videos. Thank you and God bless
You're very welcome, I'm so happy to help!
Update: I graduated and I’m now a Doctor in Dental Surgery. Thanks Leah. I couldn’t have done it without you. ❤
Hello Leah,
You’re explanation of the functional groups, is absolutely fantastic! I can understand it very clearly!
Thank you 🙏
You're very welcome! I'm so glad to hear that it helped you!
This video has been incredibly helpful to better remember and distinguish between the functional groups! Thank you so much. My favorite mneumonic was the one for ether - "on ether side is an R group." It just makes a ton of sense to me.
Yay! So glad it was helpful! I love a good mnemonic.
Thank you sooooo much!!!! You explained it well and I get it now. You're a life saver. Make more please!!!!
You're welcome, happy to help!
just wanted to tell you that you are a great teacher that i can actually understand (i can never understand what my chemistry teacher in my university is saying) and i wanted to thank you for all the great videos you do on you-tube. to be honest your probably the only reason why i survived my 1 semester chem. class with a B. YOUR A LIFE SAVER!!!
Oh wow, thanks for your kind words; so happy I could help!
I can't wait to look at all of your videos! You just helped me avoid a few of my minor mistakes in Orgo 2 (The Phenyl & Phenol -_-") LOVE IT!
Awesome, so happy to help!
Incredibly helpful!!!! Cramming for an anesthesia exam requiring basic knowledge of functional groups and this is a life-saver! I sat through a 3+ hour lecture and took away less from that class than I did this 21 minute video.
Glad I could help! Hope your exam went well :)
hiiii! i'm brazilian & this truly helped me waaaay more than any video in my first language. thank youuu:)
Oo
You're welcome, happy to help!
Went on the Christmas break just brushing up before I dive back in, a lot of the concepts and placing are all so simple and detailed thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thank you so much for providing content like this! I'm reviewing before beginning the semester and I have had no trouble understanding! Your hard work is appreciated! (:
Glad it was helpful! For even more resources to help you get a jump on the semester, check out my prestudy guide: leah4sci.com/prestudy
This is everything I needed! I made a cheat chart on my test notes and I could have saved half a page for other info if I had just watched this first! Thank you so much!
You're welcome, so happy to help!
Leah, Thank you so very much, you explain it so clearly and direct which is what is missing in classroom teaching and in reading the books.
You are very much welcome! Glad to have helped :)
I can't just put into words how much I love youuu, Ms. Leah. 💟 You've been saving me a lot. Thank youuuuu.
You're so welcome!
Leah is the best when it comes to organic chemistry. I really appreciate. Thumbs up
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate your kind words, and I'm happy to help!
Just started a course in organic chemistry, my teacher's lecture was 2 hrs and I didn't understand what she was talking about. I watched this for 20 minutes, which covered exactly what my teacher was trying to explain for 2 hrs, and it was super helpful. Going to watch your nomenclature videos up next, I bet they are as helpful as this video was! Thank you so much!!
Greetings from Sweden :)
Always easier second time round, incredible isn't it...
You're so very welcome!
Amazing video! My favorite was the d in amide for a double bound oxygen. Thank you so much for all of your informational videos, they are an absolute pleasure to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it! You're very welcome
@@Leah4sci How cool that you actually took the time to respond! Girl you're killing it~! All my friends who have moved onto Organic Chem 2 are so thankful for you as well!!
Thank you so much I know this vdo already have lot of views and comments but Im here to say Im glad to be one of the people that found this vdo! it's a really good resource!
You are very welcome!
You did such a wonderful job in explaining all the important functional groups. Thanks a lot :)
You're so very welcome, and thanks for your kind words!
I never thought I was going to be able to understand functional groups before this video. I really liked all of the memorizing tips and tricks too!!!!
yay, so glad to help you understand!!!
my teacher's so boring and inflexible in teaching so I'm so glad that I found your channel this helped me A LOT!! Thank you very much, God Bless!
You're welcome, so happy to help!
So clear and well explained. Thank you Leah! Great job.
You're so very welcome!
I thought I knew everything about functional groups already, but this video actually helped me learn even more! I learned that an epoxide is a 3-atom ring and it's also an ether. I learned that THF is a cyclic ether. I also learned that a thiol contains a -SH group! Thanks for helping me identify and fill in gaps in my knowledge.
You are so welcome! I love that my video helped you to understand and grow your knowledge!
lmao basic stuff
Another amazing video that makes learning ORGO a rewarding experience. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thanks Leah haven’t had Chemistry in over five years and your videos have been helpful. I am currently taking Organic 2 and need this review.
Glad I could help! Make sure to watch through my orgo 1 review playlist to help you make sure you haven't forgotten anything :)
Thank u so much for this video, I wish I had found this sooner. I have really bad anxiety when studying this subject in class because it reminds me of the time I was going through something really bad. This video is very helpful. The way you explain it makes me feel calm enough to actually finish watching and understanding it.
I'm sorry to hear you have a bad connection to the subject, but I'm happy my video was able to help you understand the topic.
@@Leah4sci thank you! I have gotten my results back and I did pretty well. Your videos explained everything so easily I could just watch once and understand. I am also going through therapy for my problem so o hope I’ll be able to learn without remembering the bad stuff. Thank you so much ❤️
Very straightforward. Still a lot to take in, but much easier to understand.

Happy to help!
Yes, it did help me a lot. Our finals is tomorrow and I barely passed all our previous exams, but this video made me understand one of the supposed-to-be basic lessons in OrgChem. I liked the ketone which did not like to be alone the most. Hahaha. Thank you!
You're very welcome, happy to help! :)
Thanks a bunch! I can remember a lot of my chemistry education, but I could only remember a few of these functional groups. The brush up helped.
Thanks!
Glad to hear it! You're welcome.
absolutely loved everything and all the pneumonics ! thank you sooooo much !
Glad you like them!
Leah ! this was super helpful going to use my white board to practice them the one i loved the most is the trick of remembering that Amide is an Amine but remembering that the "D" reminds us that there is a double bond O attached
Glad I could help :)
i'm on my second viewing. this is SO helpful and nicely/thoughtfully explained. tyvm!!
You're welcome, so happy to help!
As a medical student somewhat removed from the classroom with residency and internships, this is so well taught it's my first stop.
